Sony's Image Sensing Solutions Division presents the new XCL-S series machine
vision cameras with 6 and 9 MPixel sensor. These camera modules based on the
CameraLink transmission standard are available now.

The new Sony XCL-S900/C module with 9 MPixel resolution and the XCL-S600/C
module with 6 MPixel resolution are available as colour or monochrome versions
and use Sony's latest EXview HADII CCD technology. They come with a 1/1 sensor
which allows image acquisition even under very poor lighting conditions and is
suitable for wavelengths in the near infrared region. It has one of the most
light-sensitive sensors on the market.

The company's camera designers worked closely with Sony's sensor specialists
in developing the new cameras. According to Sony, the new XCL-S cameras offer
very high image quality and even exceed the quality of analogue cameras as
regards the frame rate and high resolution of the modules.

For applications requiring high image quality

With their high frame rate of up to 27 fps, the XCL-S cameras are suitable for
applications requiring high image quality in fields such as the pharmaceutical
industry, semiconductor manufacturing, solar technology, PCB manufacturing and
display panels. Additional features include a user-configurable memory channel
for up to 16 parameters, shading and defect correction, sensitivity control,
bulk and sequential trigger modes, trigger noise filtering, look-up table
support, a pulse train generator and temperature readout function.
